96 Comparison Is A Harsh Mentor
Reading Axel's reply, Allen couldn't help but chuckle.
"So this is what it felt like to be someone with all talents that have existed and will exist?"
Allen pondered to himself as he thought about the benefits he had received from receiving his starter pack from the chat group.
An example would be the
That was why the
If it was those trash protagonists who had received such talent, they could complain later on about everything being boring since there would be no one who could match his talents but Allen wasn't much of a trash protagonist.
For Allen, it was quite entertaining for him to have the talent that possessed all

He found it entertaining that he could flex his
Allen knew that he was arrogant but so what? He deserved to be one after he had endured all of the sufferings in his life of not being talented.
He thought of his current situation as a higher being rewarding him for his sufferings. After all, even receiving the
It was like he had accumulated all of the luck in all of his past lives and current life to win the lottery and become the Administrator of the Alternate Multiverse Chat Group System.
If Allen didn't receive the
But since he had the
As Allen thought of that, he continued relaxing on the sofa as he started reading the messages in the chat group.
[Self-Proclaimed Genius Goblin Hero: What's the point of becoming stronger when some bunch of sunflowers was not only stronger than me by a major realm and a few minor realms, but also the same level of intelligence as me?]
Reading Axel's question, Allen found it intriguing that Axel thought of himself as a genius when his level of intelligence was comparable to the prodigies in his world.
'Was Axel's mindset of him thinking of himself as a genius instead of a prodigy due to his status as a protagonist? The protagonist's aura must have altered his mindset to the point that he was oblivious of his true intelligence level. So instead of being a dense protagonist, he became a protagonist who underestimated his power.'
Thinking of that, Allen just sighed and decided not to change Axel's mindset and just let him be. Since it was the workings of his protagonist's aura, then it wasn't harmful to Axel since it might be future character development for him as a protagonist.
And besides, Allen thought that it was better to underestimate oneself than to overestimate oneself.
'.',
If Axel was overestimating himself, it would eventually harm him in the long run. After all, it would be a problem if Axel was too arrogant that he had overestimated his capabilities to the point that he had thought he could defeat all of the demon lords in his world with his current power level.
[Supreme Order (Admin): Just forget about it. Comparing yourself to others will only hurt you if you aren't better than the person you compared yourself with.]
[Supreme Order (Admin): Comparison is also a harsh mentor so as long as you don't think of it negatively and use it as a motivation to become better than the person you compared yourself with, you will eventually surpass the person you compared yourself with. But it doesn't mean the person you compared yourself with doesn't improve alongside you so if you can't surpass them, then it's not their problem that they also improved.]
Allen truly believed in what he had advised Axel since he was like that before he had received the
Constantly being compared to his younger brother had pressured him before and he could tell from experience that it was the worst feeling ever.
The feeling of being too inferior to those you have compared yourself with was unpleasant.
What's the worst feeling than that was not you comparing yourself with others but others comparing yourself to others and remarking about your shortcomings to the person being compared to you.
That was why Allen advised Axel not to compare himself to others since if Axel didn't have a strong mentality, it would only hurt him.
But we are talking about Axel here, the existence of a prodigy protagonist. If Axel couldn't even accept harsh criticisms of comparing himself to others, then he wouldn't deserve being called a genius.
After all, every genius was compared to other geniuses so geniuses were already accustomed to the feeling of being compared to others.
[Self-Proclaimed Genius Goblin Hero: Thanks for the advice, Allen! I'll take it to heart.]
After the topic of comparing oneself to others was finished, the chat group members shifted to another topic.
